[QUOTE="Lightning303, post: 1131555, member: 97876"] In external mode your ambilight software (e.g. AtmoWin or AmbiBox) grabs a screenshot on its own (as if you press print button). This means everything you seen on the screen will be used exactly as you see it. In internal mode, AtmoLight grabs the screenshots directly from mediaportals video renderer and then send this information to your ambilight software. So lets say you watch an old 4:3 movie, that is cropped (no black bars in the video encoded), then external will also display the black bars while internal will only display the pictures actually in the video. Or if you press the info button during a video, external will see the overlaying menus and analyze them, while internal will only get the video frames and not the gui frames. [/QUOTE]
